I bought an Ionic 6 and there was a “free” charger. After I got the official quote for $1700 installation after the rebates I’ve decided to shop around for my own charger and electrician. I will have plenty of time to charge at home but my level 1 charger still doesn’t keep up with 30-40 miles a day.
My question is, what is the advantage to using a hard wired charger versus a portable level 2? The portable chargers seem to cost less and I can travel with them if needed.
I don’t understand why you feel the need to purchase an entirely different charger because the installation quote was high? If the charger comes “free” use that one and your own electrician.
According to the advertisement I saw, the “Free Charger” is a ChargePoint L2 Home Flex EV charger. Why not use it?
You have to use their approved installer
Interesting! Gives a whole new meaning to “Free”.
